Posting

I know I haven't been posting very much - or anything very interesting... my apologies.

*Work update - ugh, where to begin? I have been working the Dry accounts and the GE account for about 3 weeks. The dry accounts aren't terrible. I have gotten pretty decent with our largest dry account - a dry milk company. They have roughly 8+ million pounds in our warehouse right now... they bring about 6 or 7 loads in every day and are supposed to take about 7-9 loads out, but right now that is not happening as planned. It was a frustrating transition, but I am slowly easing in to it. I actually LIKE the milk account now and the folks I work with from there are super nice, which always help!

Because I have been so swamped and stressed out with the transition and large number of complicated accounts, my boss decided to move our wine accounts over to the freezer desk. That has been a nice relief. Not that those accounts were super hard, or complicated, but they are fairly large volume, so its nice to have that out of my way right now.

GE on the other hand, continues to be a giant pain in the ass. I have the normal daily/weekly stuff pretty much down. But these little, random things keep popping up and you have to stand on your head and hold your breath just right to get things taken care of. I'm telling ya, I don't know if I will EVER like this account ~ heavy sigh.

*Health update - I caught a little something. Nothing to worry about. Staying home from work today because I was running fever this morning, and I don't think my co-workers would appreciate me spreading my germies around the office. Dr. Hinshaw's calling in an antibiotic for me, so hopefully that and some good rest will knock it out before it gets any worse!

My Coumadin level was a wee bit high 2 weeks ago, so I have to go back on Tuesday to get it checked again. I'm pretty much an old pro with this Coumadin thing, and I know illness and meds to treat it, will almost always alter my level... so I expect the next 2-3 checks will be off. Oh well... a life of Coumadin is never normal or easy. It is a nasty, horrible - although life saving - drug. But I'd rather deal with worrying about what I eat, drink or take than get a clot on my heart! Good thing I am super sleuth and I always research ANYTHING I put in to my body.

*Jackers update - Brendan made the mistake of being cheap and kinda lazy last time we bought Jack food - and bought a food with a higher fat content, that was on sale. He didn't check with the store to see if they had some of the weight issue kind we had been feeding him. So for about 3 weeks we have been coming home to a remorseful Jackers and his little "surprise" for us. EWWWWWWW. Any one who knows me, knows I loathe poop. I don't do poppy diapers (just ask my sister lol) and I really don't like coming home to it ALL over Jack's room. We will definitely have to clean that carpet this weekend! Because Brendan feels so guilty about the whole food change, he usually cleans it up. Plus he knows it grosses me out... what a nice guy :-)

Anyway, he is fine now. No accidents for the past few days... THANK THE LORD!

*FUN FUN FUN - we will be heading to Las Vegas October 8th for our cousin Josh's wedding. Josh was Brendan's best man, and now Brendan will be his! We LOVE LOVE LOVE Josh's fiancee, Meghan. They are pretty perfect for each other. Can't wait ti have her in our family!!

Plus, I have never been to Vegas, so I'm super excited. Our friends, Amanda, Wendy and her boyfriend, Simon will all be coming along. C A N N O T wait!!!!!

*Prayer update - Mrs. Mhoon is heading to Dallas with the WHOLE Mhoon and Bohn gang to go visit her son who lives there. I think they all just want to visit, relax and be together as a family during this anxious and stressful time of unknowing. Please continue to pray for her - and her family. We need to pray that God takes any cancer out of her body, if there is any. She goes in Monday. I know we will hear good news, because our God is an awesome God.

So that is all for now. Sorry this was SO long :-)
